Enrichment at St Mary's

At St Mary’s, we are committed to providing a rich and varied enrichment offer that supports our vision for every child to live life in all its fullness. Our Core Enrichment Entitlement ensures that all children have access to a wide range of experiences beyond the classroom, designed to develop their skills, interests, and personal growth.

Our enrichment programme covers five key areas:

  • Civic Engagement: Opportunities for children to participate in local community events such as the Tickhill Christmas Light Switch On, Town Council Magazine contributions, and representing the school at Remembrance Sunday.
  • Arts and Culture: Including live performances, music lessons, creative clubs, and participation in events like World Book Day and school productions.
  • Nature, Outdoors and Adventure: Activities such as Forest School, eco projects, tree planting, and residential visits to places like Sherwood Forest and Whitby.
  • Sport and Physical Activity: A broad offer including lunchtime clubs, interschool competitions, bikeability training, and physical activity sessions led by Premier Education.
  • Developing Wider Life Skills: From enterprise projects and emergency first aid training to careers week and leadership opportunities like Playground Sport Leaders and school council roles.

This entitlement is a living document that is regularly reviewed and updated by school leaders to respond to emerging needs and new opportunities. We believe that these experiences are essential in helping our children become resilient, curious, respectful, accountable, and active members of their community - living out ‘The St Mary’s Way’.

We encourage parents and carers to engage with these opportunities and support their children in making the most of all that St Mary’s has to offer.
